here is what i do to have all the users have the same Firefox preferences<br><ul><li>setting pref for all users from a <span style="text-decoration: underline;">single</span> <span style="font-weight: bold;">firefox.cfg</span>

all.js" )<br><br>and also, a good reading...<br><ul><li>manipulate the user.js in main profile folder. (more info: <a title="http://www.mozilla.org/catalog/end-user/customizing/briefprefs.html" href="http://www.mozilla.org/catalog/end-user/customizing/briefprefs.html">

<br>These settings are defined in prefs.js - How can I populate prefs.js to<br>/etc/skel ? It resides normally in<br>~user/.mozilla/firefox/{PROFILE_NAME}, which is a Mozilla-generated<br>field. Any ideas?<br><br></blockquote>
</div><br>On way is to have the script loop over all the subdirectories of ~user/.mozilla/firefox and push the prefs.js to every one of them. This is similar to how the push_icons script used to loop over all the directories in /home (I think it queries for lists of users now instead?)
